Ah, trends. There’s so much we can say about them. Sometimes they last a lifetime, like a crisp white shirt. Other times trends like crop-tops, peplums and denim jeggings (yeah, remember those leggings come jeans we were obsessed with? At least I was!). Anyway, if my memory serves me right, cut-outs were quite the rage a few months ago. But ever since the birth of twin-sets and maxi dresses, where we’re like “cut-outs are so last season, honey”.

Until we see Kareena Kapoor Khan in one that blows our minds… Sort of like this:

Styled by Tanya Ghavri in a black cut-out two-piece from H&M and a pair of Manolo Blahnik pumps, Kareena somehow just manages to exude both playfulness and sophistication at the same time.

Two word – bomb.com!

Here are all the times Kareena’s made our jaws drop in black:
